        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Listings 1.00 and 101.00 of appendix 1 to the disability regulations at 20 CFR 404.1501 through 404.1599 describe those musculoskeletal impairments that are considered severe enough to prevent a person from doing any gainful activity or, for a child claiming SSI payments under title XVI, that causes marked and severe functional limitations. Comprehensive revisions to these listings are being made to ensure that the medical evaluation criteria are up to date and consistent with the latest advances in medicine. The SSI program incorporates by reference and uses the same medical criteria as the old-age, survivors, and disability insurance program.]]></ABSTRACT>
